INDIANAPOLIS (AP) - Danny Granger scored 32 points and led Indiana back from a
15-point fourth-quarter deficit, and Troy Murphy's buzzer-beating
tip-in completed an improbable 118-117 victory over the Los Angeles
Lakers on Tuesday night.
The Lakers came into the game with seven straight wins, the
league's best record and reigning MVP Kobe Bryant. But even another
terrific night from Bryant, who scored 28 points, wasn't quite
enough.
Indiana trailed 101-86 at the start of the fourth quarter,
but methodically chipped into the lead.
